Boils: Please re-phrase question. Are you breaking out in boils? If so, where are they, how big are they and are they filled with pus or draining? Do you have diabetes or other illnesses? Have you had boils before? Are you on medications? Do you work around people with infections? Are you over weight or sick in any way?
If you are getting worse then find a way to see a doctor at least once.
